S/4HANA 2025 Upgrade Transforms Heavy Engineering Operations
From S/4HANA 1809 to S/4HANA 2025 for Structural Fabrication & Heavy Engineering
Legacy Platform Holding Back Growth
An aging S/4HANA 1809 system was limiting innovation, with long-running ABAP reports impacting daily operations. A heavy custom code footprint and complex MES integrations, combined with strict downtime constraints due to live engineering projects, demanded a low-risk upgrade without disrupting ongoing fabrication and infrastructure delivery.
